Great Verse from Ted

Ted Hughes - Tales from Ovid
Some verse from "Midas" on Apollo:

"In his right hand he held
The plectrum that could touch
Every wavelength in the Universe
Singly or simultaneously.
Even his posture
Was like a tone - like a tuning fork,
Vibrant, alerting the whole earth,
Bringing heaven down to listen."
